Today I finished the last touches on my fall porch decor. I call this my early fall front porch decor because come October it will be all pumpkins. Our pumpkins are ready to harvest, but I wanted to give my apples some limelight. After all we do live in apple country!

I have a confession to make, the first time I made a homemade pie crust was this year. I must have been sick the day we made pie crust in cooking class back in high school. I have always been really nervous to make my own.

This weekend is our county fair and rodeo, this week we are trying to get our hay baled, alfalfa seeded so we can go play for the weekend! In between farming we also have nine sows (mama pigs) that are due all this week. We have had 5 litters so far, that makes about 50 little piglets running around. That’s a whole lot of cuteness happening.
